    Nice posture and great bg. The bird looks a bit soft overall and the breast feathers a bit dark as well.

    Nice pose captured. I would try to make the bird brighter and the background less bright, to make the bird pop.
    I'm not hundred percent sure but it would be worth a try.

    Great bird, love the red eye, blue bill, and flared tail. I agree the bird looks a bit soft. Well focussed, just needs an additional round of sharpening for web presentation. I could see a bit more at top and right, and I believe some fill flash would have been good here. Superb BG!

    First time I see this species. Very good looking bird. The BG is nice and I think that some more sharpening would improve the image. I would place the subject just a little lower in the frame.
